    I am not hard to please! All I want is a simple, column shaped or a-line dress with a sweetheart top. Straight. No poof or beading. I am a size 2 and 5'8" tall.

    I have tried on countless dresses and none seem to fit my criteria! It seems like it would be easy to find...? Should I be less picky?

    And also if you own a dress that sounds like this, I would love to hear from you. my wedding is on May 8, 2010 and I would love to knock the dress off my to do list!

    You definitely shouldn't be less picky - I'm sure everyone on Weddingbee will help you out!

    But can I ask a favor?  If you want to talk about the buying and selling of a specific dress, please post over on the Classifieds!  Of course, if you want to vent or just talk about dresses in general... you're in the right place. :-)

    Chin up, girly. It is out there. I tried on hundreds of dresses and went to like a million stores (ok maybe like 5) some twice before I found something. Enjoy the ride. Don't stress. :)

    You sound pretty similar to me! Also a size 2 but quite a bit shorter at 5'5. It took me forever, but I finally settled on this one and I love it! Its not an a-line, but it only has a slight mermaid, so pretty close. Could be even closer to an a-line depending on how you alter it. It is alfred angelo style 2034 and ps it was only $300! Hang in there! You'll find something that works for you!

    Hmmm...take a look at Alfred Angelo #1148. I think it may be good for you!

    How about something like this:

    It was the dress worn in the movie "The Hangover."  Simple, elegant, and beautiful!
